LOL!!! youve obviously have never lived with a Great Dane!! If i turn on the sprinklers out back this is what usually happen:
My dogs take off out the door, get extremly wet from playing in the water than they "just happen" to run through the dirt part of our yard, and if im really lucky they might have a nice roll in the newly romped mud!! Oh what fun!...
i remember one time malakai was around 5 months, i didnt think he'd touch the sprinklers so i left the door open (chloe was in her crate), i come back from the bathroom and there he is, laying on my couch, with his massive puppy paws, (now MUDDY massive puppy paws), and his butt up in the air and starts "roo rooing" at me (if you have a dane you know exactly what a dane "roo roo" is like!) then he takes off out the door cause he knew mum wasnt very happy with him..so i had a muddy couch and huge muddy pawprints through out the living room...*sighs* the joys of puppy hood
